Eleven Accords generates and performs its complex counterpoint against vividly implied intersections of planes– Cartesian demarcations of position and location, spherical projections of corporeal occupancy and containment, and palpable somatic fields of sense and relationship. The dancer's movements (within the remarkably spare and effective staging) establish topographies so convincing that it becomes unnecessary to fall into formation.
